'Prophecy' in the Bible

to another, the performing of miracles,to another, prophecy,to another, distinguishing between spirits,to another, different kinds of languages,to another, interpretation of languages.

If I have the gift of prophecyand understand all mysteriesand all knowledge,and if I have all faithso that I can move mountainsbut do not have love, I am nothing.

But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in other languages, how will I benefit you unless I speak to you with a revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

It follows that speaking in other languages is intended as a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers. But prophecy is not for unbelievers but for believers.
